Development Economist and Senior Research Fellow on the University of Ghana, Dr. George Domfe, has advised Isaac Adongo to cease parading himself as an economist when he didn’t learn economics on the college.
Dr Domfe, who clashed with Isaac Adongo on Accra-based Hot 93.9 FM’s Morning Dew present hosted by Kwabena Prah Jnr, advised the NDC’s legislator for Bolga Central to cease feeding Ghanaians together with his ignorance as a result of he’s not an economist and doesn’t perceive a lot of the issues he shares his opinions on.
“I wonder why you carry yourself as an economist and speak to economic issues as though you are an authority in that field. You and I know that you are not an economist” Dr. Domfe acknowledged.
“You read Business Administration as your first degree, MBA and Chartered Accountant as your courses. What makes you an economist with these courses you pursued? You are an accountant and not an economist” Dr. Domfe defined additional.
Most of the issues the NDC MP speaks to, in line with Dr. Domfe, are past him as a result of he doesn’t perceive them.
Adongo in his defence stated that he learn programs in micro and macroeconomics whereas having his first diploma and browse managerial economics as one of many programs in his MBA and that makes him an economist.
In his rebuttal, Dr. George Domfe identified to Adongo that he has taught managerial economics on the University of Ghana Business School and that can’t support one to be an economist and parade himself as such.
“Reading Managerial Economics in a semester is not enough for you to be referred to as an expert in economics for which reason you’d be granting interviews as if you are an economist”
The University of Ghana economist additional defined to Adongo that studying such programs in a single or two semesters as half of a complete program doesn’t adequately assist one to totally perceive Ghana’s economic system or another economic system for that matter.
“As a business student, these are basic things you are taught to grasp a few concepts and they do not make you an economist. These are far away from understanding economics. Stop misinforming the general public about the program you pursued, for you are not an economist but an accountant” Dr. George Domfe scolded him.
